Slide 6 / 152 Slide 7 / 152 Area of a Rectangle Area of a Rectangle The area of a rectangle is defined to be the number of squares of In general, the area of a rectangle is equal to its base times its area "1" that can fit within it. height. This can also be referred to as its length times its width. In the below drawing, 6 unit squares fit within the below rectangle of A rectangle = length x width (lw) = base x height (bh) height 2 and based 3. 2 h 3 b Slide 8 / 152 Slide 9 / 152 Example Area of a Rectangle The diagonal of a rectangle is 34 feet and its length is 14 feet more than its width. Find the length, width, and area of the rectangle. x + 14 Sometimes, the dimensions will not be given, so you will need to We know that the width is unknown, calculate them before calculating the area. so let's call it "x". Since a rectangle is a quadrilateral with 4 right angles, 2 right triangles x Therefore, the length will be "x + 14". 34 ft can be formed when drawing one of its diagonals. Therefore, Pythagorean Theorem can be a helpful formula. Using the Pythagorean Theorem & our Algebra skills, we can solve for x. Another helpful formula is the perimeter formula for a rectangle: x 2 + (x + 14) 2 = 34 2 P = 2 l + 2 w click x 2 + x 2 + 28x + 196 = 1,156 There might also be questions asking you about the population density click 2x 2 + 28x - 980 = 0 of a town, state, or country. It is the ratio that represents the number of Since x is the length of a side, it click people living per square mile and can be found by dividing the total 2(x 2 + 14x - 480) = 0 has to be positive. Therefore, population by the total area. our final answer is click 2(x + 30)(x - 16) = 0 x = 16 ft = width click x + 30 = 0 or x - 16 = 0 length = 30 ft click Area = 480 ft 2 x = -30 or x = 16 click click Slide 9 (Answer) / 152 Slide 10 / 152 Example 1 What is the area of a rectangle that has a length of 8.4 The diagonal of a rectangle is 34 feet and its length is 14 feet more cm and a width of 3.7 cm? than its width. Find the length, width, and area of the rectangle. x + 14 Questioning to help address MP standards: We know that the width is unknown, What information do you have? (MP1) so let's call it "x". What is this problem asking? (MP1) What strategies are you going to use? x Therefore, the length will be "x + 14". 34 ft (MP1) Math Practice How can you represent the problem with numbers and symbols? (MP2) Using the Pythagorean Theorem & Create an equation to represent the our Algebra skills, we can solve for x. problem. (MP2) x 2 + (x + 14) 2 = 34 2 What labels (or units of measurement) should you use? (MP6) click x 2 + x 2 + 28x + 196 = 1,156 Does anyone have the same answer, but a click different way to explain it? (MP7) 2x 2 + 28x - 980 = 0 Since x is the length of a side, it What concepts that we have learned before click 2(x 2 + 14x - 480) = 0 were useful in solving this? (MP8) has to be positive. Therefore, [This object is a pull tab] click our final answer is 2(x + 30)(x - 16) = 0 x = 16 ft = width click x + 30 = 0 or x - 16 = 0 length = 30 ft click Area = 480 ft 2 x = -30 or x = 16 click click
